"a beer".

Have you met Bibs before?

When I met Bibs for the first time, he just had a cup of tea. Nothing else.

Today represents a milestone which we never thought we would see back in Nov 2016. It is 5 years to the day since I was diagnosed with incurable stage 4 lung cancer and 3 years, almost to the day

It was definitely Bibs, or both he and his brother drive the same. :driving:

Tell you what made me happy today Flexi + on the Euro Tunnel. Drove back from Paris train leaving in 10mins straight past the whole queue then a lovely pretty little French girl. Stopped all the traffic for us and straight on the train. You could feel the daggers ? You pays your money and you take your choice. We definitely wouldn't have got on that train without it. 

Seriously worth considering if you are going during peak times the same happened this end on the way out.

@Dan E On the way out we stay at the Holiday Inn in Folkestone and get the 07:20. never needed the Flexi-plus for this. We are trying it on the way back this year after 4 other returns where we have been stuck in the queue 3 times. - August bank holiday weekend. Hope it is 10 minutes :)

Chris everyone will hate you but it is marvellous. We was laughing on the way through you literally drive pass everyone then get straight on the train. If it wasn't business I might take a view but now not so sure.

We always use flexi+ when going through the tunnel. Did you pick up the free goodies as well? bottles of plonk in a nice little presentation box together with an opener and some nibbles.

Dave missed all that as just wanted to get home. Missed the lounge as well but I think that is only France side at the  moment as they are building it over here currently? Thing is compared to flight and car hire it is cheap oh and them French roads set the cruise at 90mph, everyone moves to the slow lane instantly a real pleasure to drive over there. Do it a fair bit but got on the M20 and the bit with the variable speed cameras the road is f&£ked, bumps and potholes. But drove back this side with a Volvo estate registered in Denmark we were the only two who had any lane discipline lovely drive together and a thumbs up together as I left the motorway 60 odd miles later.

Happy birthday "old" boy from sunny (well a bit cloudy) Spain. Don't worry on the 06.20 plane out promptly fell asleep, unheard of, never sleep on planes especially after turning left! Woken by wife for snoring and dribbling! I have 7 years on you! 

Best bit to save money unbeknownst to me wifey didn't book private transfer! So got to Spain in 2 hours 5mins, sat on coach for an hour and a quarter then  dropped everyone on it off first! It took 3 hours! FFS! 

Anyway gin and tonic in hand looking at the beach and the sea, lovely, and your still 7 years older than me so happy days ?

Must be knackered obviously meant turning right!

We had that so paid the €65 for a taxi back to the airport this morning, no way was I sitting on the coach that long again. They said it would be just over an hour and it was closer to 2.5. The cabbie was very nice, I've got her card here if you want her number @Dan E and we got there in just under 45 mins?

Shame about the weather, first clouds in a week today. Mind you, were were at Hidropark yesterday and it was 39 which was more than enough heat! Have a nice trip mate, any idea where you are yet?

The Feckin Excel passed MOT. 

A few items to sort.

3 pin holes in the exhaust which the garage are welding.

Small oil leak on rear rocker which they will reveal.

Small leak from steering pump which I'll need to replace at some point.

Front suspension bushes a little worn so will need to replace those at some point.

Not bad at all. Now to plan the rest of the work that needs doing.
